Woody Woodpecker had a Saturday morning show in the 1970s, but in 1957-1958, Woody had a Thursday afternoon show on ABC in the Mickey Mouse Club slot. I guess the Mouseketeers needed time off now and then. ITEM 1: Bobby Kennedy Jr. entered the presidential race, nearly 60 years after the assassination of his uncle and 55 years after the assassination of his father. I respect his courage.
Re your last poll above... The difference is that Elon Musk will doubtless learn something from his blow up; I doubt the same can be said for Anheuser-Busch. Or corporate America.

Scott Johnson of Powerline just doesn't get it. The Powerline folks don't get it at all. Basically, they have devolved into a small group of Never Trumpers, some openly, some snidely. Never mind that Trump gave them judges and tax cuts and the kind of conservatism they say they want. The Donald is just too vulgar and uncouth for their tastes. They'll probably vote for Biden or Kennedy and they'll support DeSantis in the primaries. These are the kind of conservatives I now consider out of touch with actual voters. I've been reading Powerline for 20 years and I check in regularly to see what they have to say. The blog is good concerning crime and education and the op-ed pieces they post are generally interesting, but there's far too much pearl clutching going on over there on politics. Remember, they have principles and can accept losing with grace.
RFK,Jr.‘s value is not as a potential president, but a force within the Democrat voting bloc to drive some voters towards skepticism of the media/deep state narrative on vaccines, lockdowns, and Ukraine. He is loosening a segment of the block for Trump to chisel off, just as Bernie did to Hillary in 2016.
That last line is a hoot. I truncated BudLight about forty years ago. Even when I still drank beer!
Thanks for the reminders and the laughs. Oh, and now the prosecutor is saying he could file charges against Baldwin again. Somehow the smoke that lawyer is blowing doesn't hide the facts.

RE: #1 Funny how Democrats manage a near 100% line vote on all bills at every level of governemnt but then dio not to list their party in local elections. Notice they also push the "country before party" lie. When anyone with sense knows nothing comes before the party for a democrat.
#7 --More female crash test dummies to make things even with the male crash test dummies. This is a first-world problem. Nothing like picking a useless issue. Reason? Unable to do anything else.
Dang Don. Looks like this Substack thing might work out for you!! Twice this week, over 100 comments. Massive response on the perfectly scientific polls. Congrats.
#11 -- People don't want to pay $8 a month to be a blue-checked Twit. So what? Maybe all of these crazies and cheapos leaving because of the fee will make the platform more sane. Can't hurt to try, right?
The article said:
Chairman Xi will just have to buy off Taiwan’s politicians like he does every other country.
I say:
It worked for Biden and The United States, didn't it?
The article also said:
“Bud Light VP of Marketing Alissa Heinerscheid has taken a leave of absence ..."
Uhm, no she hasn't. According to a couple of news outlets, neither liberal, this PIG has been fired.

Robert Kennedy, Jr is surely upsetting Susan Rice and Valerie Jarretts plan to put M Obama in Biden’s place. Hopefully he has private security.

re: Buzzfeed: It got what it deserved for it's major part in the Russia dossier. Can we call that another case of Trumpenfreud?
#17- I expect the Republicans to cave. They always do. As long as their balls stayed dropped, nothing changes.
Re Space X somewhere, Robert A. Heinlien smiles .
Preferably in a Spaceport Bar with Asimov, Clarke, and Roddenberry.

#13- I like Vivek Ramaswamy but it's not his time. I think he will be a valuable player for the Rs in the coming years. Let's see where he lands.

Will Mayor Pete's "female dummies" be considered "backseat drivers"?

#14. They confirmed that Baldwin is dumber than a dum dum bullet so couldn't be irresponsible.
(See who framed Roger Rabbit if you don't know what a dum dum bullet is. Hint, it's different than a dummy round.)
